Emerald Star: Lan of Bonds

After Xiao Taidao's wound was almost healed, he began to run around, sometimes running out all night without seeing anyone.

Mr. Butterfly and Meimei often need to worry about Kodachi until very late, until he comes back by himself, with a pile of scrap metal and scrap engines by his side.

Xiao Taidao didn't know what he was planning, he lost an arm, and he ran to the dog monument every day to pick up scrap iron without fear of death.But Mr. Butterfly and Meimei didn't stop him, because it was lucky that Xiao Taidao didn't go to the cutting-edge city to find Xinghua by himself.

Kodachi and Mori Yu asked for a room - actually robbed.He stuffed all the scrap iron he collected into it, and then nestled in it for a whole day.

Mr. Butterfly and Meimei didn't know what Xiaodachi was doing, and they didn't bother to ask. Xiaodachi would say what he wanted to say, and what they had to be responsible for was——

"This little girl really knows how to eat!" said a hound that was serving food, and then gave Meimei more food.

Meimei has a good appetite recently, and she is getting better.

"If you eat any more, you will become too fat to walk." Mr. Butterfly sighed softly, "Are your feet feeling better?"

"It's much better!" Meimei's mouth was full of food, she swallowed hard, and continued: "Xiao Taidao said that eating more food will give you strength."

"Why did he say that?"

"I don't know, he only said this to me these days, so I did it." Meimei said, and when she mentioned Kodachi, she was a little teary again, because the recent Kodachi didn't like her. Talking, she was so lonely, "Did he run out again last night?"

"Did you hear the engine humming in his room all night?"

"I heard, what is Kodachi doing?"

"I don't know." But Mr. Butterfly is sure it's not a good thing.

He heard it when he was surrounded by Orgs, and those Orgs said that Xinghua was an energy body.Mr. Butterfly has read the book, he knows what the energy body is, no wonder Xinghua has that strange disease, because he is turning into energy.

The energized energy body must eventually dedicate the body to the mother, which means death, but it can save the entire Emerald Star from extinction. The reason why those Orgs brought Xinghua back must be for this.

He already knows this, and Kodachi must know it too, it's hard to imagine how anxious Kodachi is now——

While Mr. Butterfly was poking at a piece of chicken, it was the first time that the little sword they were talking about stepped out of the room at such a time.

He came from behind them, patted them on the back of the head with his left hand as he passed them, and then hooked them to follow.

"Little Taidao!"

"Where are you going?"

Mr. Butterfly and Meimei followed in a hurry, only to realize that Kodachi was heading towards Moritama's room.

Kodachi walked quickly all the way, as if the sewer was his home, and then Mr. Butterfly and Meimei saw him grab a chair casually. They didn't know what Kodachi wanted to do until they reached the door of Mori Yu's room.

Two people stood guard in front of the door, one of them was Ron.

"Little Taidao?"

As soon as Ron's voice sounded, Kodachi threw the chair over. After Ron escaped, he kicked open the door and entered, then poked his head out and waved to the two people standing outside dumbfounded.

***

Mr. Butterfly and Meimei glanced at each other, they walked in slowly, and Moriyu was inside, discussing things with some other traveling dogs.

Seeing them, Mori Yu frowned with a look of bewilderment.

"Tell the others to go out," Kodachi said, stretching his muscles and pulling a chair.

Moritama was smart, so he called those people out before Kodachi smashed his room with a chair.

"What's going on?" Ron entered on his own initiative, seeing Kodachi move the chair, he was a little nervous, but Kodachi just sat on it like an old man.

"Why do you want to come to my place?" Moriyu was puzzled, he looked at Kodachi.

Xiao Taidao lost a lot of weight a while ago, but now he has cultivated his spirits, and his skin and flesh have grown back.

"I'm here to ask for a story ball." Kodachi said very directly.

"I can't give it to you, you should have known that I would say that." Mori Yu shook his head, seeing Kodachi gritted his teeth at him, he looked indifferent, "Believe me, in your current state, you don't want to be with me. I fought."

"No fight with you, just you took our story ball and we have a right to know something."

Senyu raised his eyebrows, it was rare that Kodachi didn't solve the problem with his fist immediately, he thought for a while and asked, "What do you want to know?"

"I want to know what is written in those story balls, and if there are any clues about the Ark!"

"You know about the Ark?"

"Xinghua told me." Kodachi thinks there is no need to continue to hide anything, because Xinghua is no longer threatened by Moritama and the others.

"That Org is looking for the Ark?" Mori thought that Xinghua started to collect the story balls to destroy them, but the current situation made him unclear about the situation, "What is the purpose?"

"We plan to leave here on the ark."

"Get out of here, Emerald Star?" Senyu thought he heard it wrong.

"Yes, Xinghua needs to leave this ghostly place. I promised him that I would take him to that place called Earth." Xiaodachi said.

The more Senyu heard it, the more ridiculous it became. Things were completely different from what he had originally thought. That Org didn't want to expose them or destroy them, these traveling dogs, but had the same purpose as them—isn't it ridiculous?

"What a coincidence, we are also looking for the Ark through the story ball." Moriyu said, and Kodachi just raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Wait a minute, what are you looking for?" Mr. Butterfly and Meimei didn't understand, why did Kodachi and Moriyu suddenly seem to be in collusion, talking about their own affairs?

Xiao Taidao raised his hand to ask Mr. Butterfly to shut up first: "This is why you fucking keep fighting with us for the story ball?"

"Do you have a problem?" Senyu said indifferently, "We are a group of traveling dogs, how long do you think the traveling dogs can survive on this emerald planet? Do you want us to hide and hide for a lifetime! Sooner or later we will be captured by the whole group of dogs The monument is disposed of."

"Where did you hear the news about the Ark?" Kodachi asked.

"There have been such rumors among traveling dogs for a long time. Only you, a group of bred hounds, have been completely blinded by Org, so you don't know the existence of Ark." Looking at the confused Meimei and Mr. Butterfly, Moriyu explained: "That's the message from people from the past. They used to drive an escape boat called the Ark to escape from the earth to the Emerald Planet, but they ended up being enslaved. But I heard that the Ark was hidden. Now, what we are looking for is the ark."

"What is the earth?" Meimei asked in a low voice, pulling Mister Butterfly's clothes.

"That's where we used to live. I heard that we ruled there!" Moriyu laughed, and then he looked at Kodachi, "But I heard that it was destroyed and exploded long ago, right?"

"Xinghua said it's still there!" Xiaodachi insisted, "I'm going to take him there!"

"When did you discuss this with the master!" Mr. Butterfly exclaimed, how many things are these two guys hiding from him?

"Will you take me there too?" Meimei asked.

"Leave that aside, you said you were going to take that Org to Earth on the ark, but do you remember? That Org is not here now, he has already canceled his contract with you and went back! You are now an abandoned animal. Dog, you can only join us!"

Kodachi clenched his fists tightly, but he didn't wreak havoc in anger, he endured it.

"I won't join you. As for Xinghua, I will go and bring him back."

"Where to take it?"

"Cutting-edge city."

"You plan to single-handedly go to the cutting-edge city to retrieve your Org? You are such a madman..."

"I said it earlier." Ron murmured aside, but Moriyu and Kodachi shouted to shut up at the same time.

"Even if you really got lucky and brought him back, what are you going to do next? Find a place to die in love with him and end your miserable lives?" Moriyu shook his head.

"Are you an idiot? Didn't I tell you that I'm going to find Fang Zhou and take him to the earth!" Xiao Taidao had a look of reasoning with Mori Yu, which made Mori Yu, who has always been calm, couldn't bear it. Live a little crazy.

"You are... unreasonable!"

"Whatever you say, in short, I need to know what is written in the story ball. You'd better take me to see it now, otherwise..."

"Otherwise what?"

"I can destroy a dog monument, which means I can also destroy this place." Xiaodachi laughed arrogantly.

***

Mori Yu sighed, and finally compromised, he moved away, all the story balls were placed on the table, it seems that he and the traveling dogs were discussing these just now.

Moritama showed Kodachi all his story balls.

What Xinghua and Kodachi didn't see was the story behind their story ball.The sunken wooden box was finally placed on the ground as if it was frozen, and there was a beautiful green crystal column-shaped object on it.

"Do you understand?"

Xiao Taidao shook his head, and showed it to Mr. Butterfly.

"I know this." Mr. Butterfly said, he had seen this kind of green crystal columnar object. "This is the hub of a cutting-edge city!"

"What?" Meme asked.

"The hub, the core of the cutting-edge city. I heard that the matrix of the Emerald Star is just under the hub, which is also the landmark of the cutting-edge city."

Xiao Taidao's body trembled when he heard the mother's body, that is where Xinghua will be taken.

"Does this picture mean that the ark you are looking for is hidden in a cutting-edge city?" Mr. Butterfly asked.

"I don't know, but this is the most reasonable explanation for the content of the story ball. It may be because that is the place where humans first fell, so they hid the ark there." Moriyu said.

Hearing this, Kodachi couldn't help laughing at himself.It turned out that the thing Xinghua had been looking for for so long was always near the box where he had been locked up for most of his life.

If Xinghua heard this, he would definitely show a helpless smile, right?

Xiao Taidao stared at the floor, and it took him a while to come back to his senses, "Do you know the exact location where Ark is hiding?"

"We were discussing just now, and the answer is about to come out, but guess what? In the middle of our discussion, a crazy dog ​​broke in." Mori Yu smiled with sarcasm.

But Kodachi and Mr. Butterfly ignored him and got together to discuss.

"What do you think of this portrait? It seems to be buried under the ice... I heard that there is a cold field near the cutting-edge city, where the temperature is low all year round. Is it possible that it is there?"

Moriyu shook his head with a look of unbearable.

Ron was quite proud, because now Senyu finally understood how he felt.

***

"There is a cold field near the cutting-edge city, not far away." Mori Yu said: "According to the clues in the story ball, the Ark is indeed probably hidden under a certain ice layer in the cold field."

He looked at Mr. Butterfly, thinking that he was just Xinghua's play dog, but he didn't expect that the other party knew a lot more than he imagined.

"It's not big there, as long as there are enough people, maybe we can find the ark you mentioned soon." Mr. Butterfly said, and then he whispered in Xiao Taidao's ear: "I know you must be thinking about running to find it by yourself. , but believe me, it will take too much time to find it on my own! If you can, use it as much as possible!"

Mr. Butterfly's pointed words calmed down a pair of little Taidao who couldn't sit still with itchy buttocks.

"But there is a problem. We are not sure whether there is really an ark. Even if we find it, we are not sure whether it can still be used." Moriyu said: "So we plan to act with caution."

"Be more cautious? How cautious are you going to be? Wait a year or two before taking action?" Saying that Xiaodachi can't wait so long, Xinghua is still waiting for him.

"Otherwise, when do you want us to act?"

"Now."

"Impossible, the only way to go now is to die."

"There is no time for you to act more cautiously!" Kodachi said.

"Haha, this is my territory, my traveling dogs, I don't need to let you make a decision." Moriyu shrugged, and Kodachi looked like he was about to jump up and beat someone.

Mr. Butterfly pressed the little Taidao as tightly as he could.

Little Dao grabbed Mr. Butterfly's sleeve and whispered in his ear: "I can't wait any longer, Xinghua doesn't know where it is yet!"

Mr. Butterfly patted Xiao Taidao, he straightened up, and said abruptly to Moriyu: "The pest damage won't last long." As long as they put Xinghua into the mother's embrace, the pest damage will stop.

"What do you want to say?"

"Once the pest infestation stops, the Org of the entire Emerald Planet will have free time to rebuild the dog monument, and of course, deal with you wild dogs. Do you think you can easily avoid their eyes and ears and go to find the Ark?"

What Mr. Butterfly said is not unreasonable. Recently, the pests have been serious. Orgs are too busy dealing with the pests. They have no time to deal with the problem of escaping wild dogs.

"But this is a big deal, it's not up to you. The search for the Ark will be carried out by us, can the three of you help? Two children, one with a broken arm, basically a child Guys, I don’t think you can help me, on the contrary, we need our assistance to send you to the ark.” Senyu said: “Understood? You are not qualified to speak.”

"Actually... I think we have." Mr. Butterfly Xue Moriyu smiled, "We have no plan to find the ark with you. On the contrary, we will split up. While you are looking for the ark, we plan to go to the Bring back our master."

"what?"

Mr. Butterfly patted Xiao Taidao beside him, and he looked straight at Moriyu, "And when we were looking for the master, judging from Xiao Tai Dao's previous record, it would definitely cause chaos there, and it could just help you attract attention."

Mori Yu sighed, he looked at the three people with serious faces.

"You haven't given up on that Org?" It seems that the contract of taking Kodachi didn't have much impact on him.

"That guy is mine, why give it up?" Xiaodachi frowned.

"You are really hopeless, completely brainwashed by that Org!"

"It doesn't matter, it's none of your business anyway." Kodachi looked at Moriyu and then at Ron, he threw the story ball in his hand at Ron, "Of course it's none of your business!"

"Hello!" Ron called.

"Stop, stop, stop arguing, and get back to the topic, what are you planning?" Mr. Butterfly stopped Xiaodachi.

"You are going to die." Senyu frowned, he tried to reason, although he knew how to persuade, these guys would not listen.

"It's just three humans who are loyal to Org. Their lives are insignificant. Isn't it a good deal to exchange the lives of all the traveling dogs here? Besides, in the words of Kodachi, what we want to do is none of your business?"

Mr. Butterfly and Mori Yu pretended to look at each other and smiled, and this was the first time Mori Yu discovered that the really difficult guy was not Kodachi, but the handsome young man in front of him.

"Hmm..." Finally, Moriyu gave up, he had to say that the conditions offered by Mister Butterfly were not unattractive, "Is there any condition in exchange?"

"Exchange terms? Let me think about it... For example, after you find the ark, remember to give us and our master some seats. Also, the sooner this plan can be carried out, the better!"

"Whether we find the ark or not, we can only wait for you for a short time. If you don't show up by then, we will leave."

"make a deal."

"As for the time you want us to act, I need a week's planning."

"Two days."

"Six days."

"Three days." Mr. Butterfly put his arms around his chest.

"make a deal."

Then they looked at each other and smiled again.

Always feel that there is a feeling of sparks?Ron and Meimei on the side were dumbfounded, but Kodachi didn't say a word, not even when Mr. Butterfly pulled him away.

***

For the next three days, Kodachi locked himself in the room and did not take a step out of the door at all, but from time to time, he could hear noisy collisions in the room.

The underground passage is also very busy these days. They organize the equipment and the entire underground passage. Everyone is busy in and out, just to find the ark that they don't know if it really exists.

Mori Yu seems to want to gamble big, so he plans to bring all the current traveling dogs there.

Before leaving early in the morning of the third day, Xiaodachi finally stepped out of the room. The first thing he did was to run up and dismantle the entrance of the sewer, and he dismantled a big hole. He opened the door of his own room, and also opened a big hole.

When Mr. Butterfly and Meimei heard the sound and ran to Xiaodachi's room, they didn't know what to say when they saw the scene inside.

"How about this guy?" Xiao Taidao patted the things beside him, and for the first time in a few days, he showed that arrogant smile from before.

"You are really crazy..." When seeing a new maglev car appearing out of thin air beside Xiaodachi, Mr. Butterfly didn't know what else to say.

Xiaodachi is actually doing this these days!

"It's amazing!" Meimei rushed up and hugged Xiao Taidao, Xiao Taidao looked proud.

"What are you doing with this thing?" Mr. Butterfly murmured, but the person still stuck to it.

The shell is rough, but the shape is smooth.

"Some kind of transportation is always needed." Kodachi said, looking at Mr. Butterfly, "Of course, since I can't be expected to drive, you are still the driver."

Mr. Butterfly looked a little happy, but someone was not very happy.

"You actually do this kind of thing in my underground passage?" Moriyu, who came late, looked at the big hole at the exit of the underground passage, and then at the big hole in the door of Xiaodachi's room. If he continued to let Xiaodachi live, this place would definitely be destroyed.

"As long as I'm happy!"

Will you be able to make a maglev vehicle under such a difficult environment?Mori Yu had a headache, he definitely underestimated Kodachi's ability, this hound whose arm was broken, is now as tenacious as if it had ten hands.

"Listen, we need a way to cover us and this car to the vicinity of the cutting-edge city." Xiao Taidao patted the car body.

"Are you asking me to find a way now?" Senyu put his arms around his chest.

"Otherwise?" Kodachi's tone made Senyu feel that it was their duty.

"Forget it." Waving his hand, Mori Yu didn't want to fight with Kodachi over such a trivial matter on such an important day as today. "Maybe we can put you on the light-sill train that transports goods to cutting-edge cities or something."

"Very well, then as soon as possible, because we are ready to go." Kodachi said.

Mori Yu really wanted to beat Kodachi hard, but he chose to leave in the end.

***

The crowd of onlookers also dispersed one after another, busying themselves with their own affairs.Only Ron, he stood aside, a little shy, and finally he stepped forward.

"Little Taidao."

"What are you doing?" Xiao Tai Dao's tone was not very good, he was letting Mr. Butterfly test the engine.

"There is nothing you three can do, I think you need help." Ron coughed dryly.

"No, we don't need it." Kodachi shook his head, dismissing Ron's offer of help, "especially your help."

"You..." Ron blushed.

"Go and help Mori Yu! I think you'll be fine after following him." Kodachi said a few perfunctory words, and was about to bend down again, but was pulled back by Ron.

"I really want to beat you up! Kodachi."

"Welcome, would you like to have a game now?" Kodachi didn't mind having a warm-up exercise first.

"No, let's have a good fight after you bring that Org to the ark." Ron said, putting one hand on Kodachi's shoulder, "Even if you lose a hand, I still won't show mercy."

Kodachi was stunned until Ron turned and left.

"What's the matter, Kodachi?" Mr. Butterfly poked his head out, Kodachi's expression was very strange, "Is he bothering you?"

"No...not looking for trouble." Xiao Taidao rubbed his neck, "but he was so numb that I got goosebumps all over my neck."
